Let's not forget that militaries all over the world have learned a great deal about what warfare looks like now. The Ukraine civil war (what it really is) has definitely been a great weapons testing and counters environment. Too bad the civilians and soldiers are the ones that have suffered from it. In the end, Russia will take what they want and gain a lot of economic benefit from their victory. Not sure if this is true but I read that 1/4 of the Ukrainian population is still out of the country. Putin's longing for the good old days of the Soviet Empire, and our encouragement of westernizing Ukraine has led to this.

That being said...F**ck Russia!!
